Name: Hadley Ansgot

Species: Stoat

Gender: Female

Age: 38

Role: Captain of the guard for Blue King, if it isn’t chosen for me.

Weapons: Cutlass, Falchion

Personality: A callous introvert whose only real friends are her weapons, Hadley is still an intelligent soul with good knowledge of various swords. Although most creatures of her species are little more than hired goons, Hadley is very skilled with her two main weapons; the Falchion and the cutlass, and has done more killing in her life than most beasts have eaten meals, hence her cold and insensitive attitude. Hadley does have a friendly side, but it is seldom seen, and only then by her close friends and few living relatives.

Appearance: Hadley’s right eye (she was born without a left one) is a strange, almost mint-green color and her fur is a very dark brown (specifically sable) which is extremely rare for her species. Her body is covered in scars. Usually she wears a cream-colored tunic, a red sash for her swords, and a pleated black skirt. (Although when practicing with her weapons she dons greaves and a chainmail breastplate)

Backstory: Born out of wedlock to a common wench and the wealthy Lord Edgar Ansgot, Hadley’s mother died shortly after she was born, and she was sent to live with her mother’s poor and illicit relatives following her father’s death when she was five. From then on Hadley was raised as a thief, and soon grew to love the small but sharp dagger she was entrusted with as a young one. As an adult; Hadley briefly lead a mercenary band but was stabbed to the back and left to die after it was found she’d been hoarding everyone’s riches. Upon recovering from her gruesome injuries, Hadley had a change of heart and reformed; ultimately deciding to pursue a position in the King’s court and was accepted due to her noble blood.
